faces.io – ridiculously simple video chat
This is something fun I’ve been hacking on recently: ridiculously simple group chat. Go to http://faces.io and then get your friends to do the same. That’s it! :-D Currently works best in Chrome.

In plain words
Faces.io is a group video chat application designed for simplicity and ease of use. Users can start video conversations by visiting the website and sharing the link with friends—no account creation or setup required. The service works best in Chrome and is in beta status, with occasional audio issues that may require muting. It targets anyone looking for straightforward, accessible video communication without complicated installation or configuration steps.

http://instantclick.io/ It seems the internet architecture won't bring us instant websites anytime soon. So here is a hack. I released this JS library last month (today is version 2.0 release, fixing v1.0's rough edges), it makes use of HTML5's pushState and preloading to make a website instant.
